4.2 டிசி வயரிங்
Connect the inverter/charger to your 12V battery bank using appropriately sized cables. The unit is compatible with LiFePO4, Flooded, Gel, and AGM battery types. Ensure all DC connections are tight and secure to prevent voltagஇ துளி மற்றும் அதிக வெப்பம்.
4.3 ஏசி வயரிங்
The unit supports split phase in/dual out or dual in/dual out AC connections. Connect the incoming AC power (shore power or generator) to the AC input terminals and your AC loads to the AC output terminals. All AC wiring must comply with applicable electrical codes.
4.4 பேட்டரி வெப்பநிலை சென்சார்
Connect the included battery temperature sensor to the designated port on the inverter/charger and attach the sensor to the battery bank. This allows for temperature-compensated charging, optimizing battery life and performance across a wide operating temperature range of -4°F to 140°F (-20°C to 60°C).
5. இயக்க வழிமுறைகள்
The Freedom SW3012 operates in two primary modes: Inverter Mode and Charger Mode, with an automatic transfer switch managing the transition between them.
5.1 இன்வெர்ட்டர் பயன்முறை
When no external AC power is present, the unit converts 12V DC power from your battery bank into 120V AC true sine wave power to supply your connected loads. The continuous output power is 3000 W at 40°C.
5.2 Charger Mode
When external AC power (shore power or generator) is connected, the unit automatically switches to charger mode, converting incoming AC power to DC to recharge your battery bank. The charger is capable of charging batteries drained to extremely low voltages.
5.3 தானியங்கி பரிமாற்ற சுவிட்ச்
The built-in transfer switch automatically detects the presence of incoming AC power. If external AC power is lost, the unit transfers loads to inverter power in less than 10 milliseconds, ensuring a virtually uninterrupted power supply to sensitive electronics.

6. பராமரிப்பு
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Xantrex Freedom SW3012 Inverter/Charger.
- சுத்தம்: Periodically clean the exterior of the unit with a dry cloth. Ensure ventilation openings are free from dust and debris. Do not use liquid cleaners.
- இணைப்புகள்: ஆண்டுதோறும் அனைத்து DC மற்றும் AC இணைப்புகளின் இறுக்கம் மற்றும் அரிப்பை சரிபார்க்கவும். தளர்வான இணைப்புகள் அதிக வெப்பம் மற்றும் மோசமான செயல்திறனை ஏற்படுத்தும்.
- பேட்டரி ஆய்வு: Regularly check your battery bank for proper fluid levels (if applicable), corrosion, and overall condition.
- காற்றோட்டம்: Ensure the area around the inverter/charger remains clear and well-ventilated.
- நீண்ட கால சேமிப்பு: For long-term storage, it is recommended to disconnect the battery leads or install a battery disconnect switch to completely power down the unit and prevent parasitic draw.
7. சரிசெய்தல்
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your inverter/charger. For complex problems, contact Xantrex technical support.
7.1 No AC Output in Inverter Mode
- Check DC Input: Ensure the battery bank is adequately charged and all DC connections are secure. Low battery voltage will cause the inverter to shut down.
- அதிக சுமை: Disconnect some AC loads to see if the inverter resumes operation. The unit may have shut down due to an overload.
- அதிக வெப்பநிலை: Check if the unit is hot. Ensure proper ventilation and allow it to cool down.
7.2 Batteries Not Charging
- ஏசி உள்ளீடு: Verify that the incoming AC power source (shore power/generator) is active and properly connected to the inverter/charger. Check AC breakers.
- AC Input Recognition: Ensure the inverter/charger recognizes the incoming AC power. If the unit does not detect a 'validated' power source, it will not initiate charging. Consult the full manual for specific AC input requirements and troubleshooting steps for this condition.
- பேட்டரி இணைப்புகள்: Confirm all battery connections are secure and free of corrosion.
- பேட்டரி வெப்பநிலை சென்சார்: Ensure the battery temperature sensor is correctly installed and functioning. A faulty sensor can affect charging.
7.3 Unit Not Powering On
- டிசி பவர்: Check the main DC fuse or breaker between the battery bank and the inverter/charger. Ensure the battery bank has sufficient voltage.
- கண்ட்ரோல் பேனல்: If using a remote control panel, ensure it is properly connected and functioning.
